I vote not at all, because this is a large additional feature and would unecessarily take away from optimizing existing features. It would be better for Proton to facilitate connecting ProtonDrive to OnlyOffice.

It would be nice to have bi-directional file/folder sharing much like Google drive, where the sharer would add a protonmail members email address to the shared folder which would allow them to add/delete files for collaborations.

I vote "Not at all" for this request. LibreOffice + Drive client works great. I would rather see all Proton Drive users migrate to LibreOffice first, because LO needs more traction to compete with MS and Google.

Ideally there would be a cooperation between Proton and the Document Foundation, perhaps the latter could develop online editors with Proton Drive storage?

It would be great if we could open and edit Word and Excel documents directly in Proton Drive without having to download them first. You know, something like how Office 360 works, but still private and secure like everything else in Proton. I think it would be super handy so we don't have to jump from one app to another or worry about privacy when using other platforms for editing. It would just make things more straightforward and keep the whole security vibe we love about Proton.

The ultimate goal is to have office-style features similar to what I currently have on G%gle Drive, which desperately needs to leave because of their recent 'bait and switch' plan update on users.

Spreadsheets are crucial; they are second only to working with documents.

If an "office suite" of tools were available, including a spreadsheet feature, it would be fantastic. Perhaps collaborating with Airtable or a similar service to create an integration could fulfil this need for spreadsheets, which I'm confident are in high demand for me and others.

By doing so, we could establish a nearly complete working ecosystem that is not reliant on G%gle for documents, spreadsheets, and other Windows suite providers at Offc33&5.

*typos on those big tech providers as i don't want to mention them.

The doc/spreadsheet editor by itself would eliminate the need for other services like Google/MS?

I would rather see Proton devote their resources toward their existing product suite.

Plenty of other alternatives exist to Microsoft Office and Google, yet the adoption is not there since no one can make a true replacement. There is always a feature to two missing. This is a result of the fact that those companies have far greater resources to devote to those products than any competitor.

I like privacy, but I will continue to use MS office since nothing even comes close if you are someone who uses the more advanced features.

Make the suite more complete by adding a word processor, a spreadsheet app, a presentation app and a pdf reader/editor (and perhaps a taks/todo program). Preferably one that works in the cloud and offline as a standalone app. Integrated with Proton Drive and Mail.

Instead of inventing the wheel, Onlyoffice would perhaps be something to look at.

I need a file that I can share with coworkers and they need to be able to access and modify the files in this folder from their own proton account. The current link system is a hassle. A link should only be shared once so the file can be mapped on their proton drive account and be shown as a shared folder. Permissions for the people I share the file with would be great too, like see only, see and modify etc..

I'm another Skiff user sadly looking around for something to replace Skiff Pages.

Skiff just sold their business and will be shutting down their pages service. Proton really should add a function for long form notes and writing. I am seriously going to miss Skiff's encrypted pages. I think it would be a bog hit for Proton and contribute to people not needing to even have both a Google account (for Docs) and and Proton account (for everything else)

I want to completely get off Google. However, the document system that they have withing their Google Drive is amazing! If you can make something like that, I'd pay for it!

Proton Documents: for documents, spreadsheets, and slide presentations. Create something like Google has where people can collaborate online. Perhaps use LibreOffice as a base, or team up with them?

This is pretty much the only reason I can't get rid of Dropbox. If I could share files/folders with others in my organization at least so that the files/folders appear in their Proton Drive, I could ditch Dropbox.

Proton's website FAQ say :

Does Proton Drive include document editing (Docs, Sheets, Slides, etc.)?

Proton Drive is currently in beta. Document editing is on our road map for future development. If you'd like to receive notifications about future product releases, contact our sales team.

Same as others.

There is a need to have an editor embedded i the web client.

Even if it doesn't have collaboration at first.

Only office or Colabora integration would be great.

The main reason why I am not using Proton Drive much is that I can't edit documents and spreadsheets like with Google Drive. I would be very happy to switch from Google Drive to Proton Drive once an alternative for Google Docs and Google Sheets is provided by Proton.

A real competitor to Google Docs and MS Office would be nice.

A simple notes solution is not sustainable. There are hundreds of applications that are infinitely better than a simple notepad. Proton should try collaborative (and personal) documents along the lines of what is possible with the aforementioned competitors.

We have Microsoft office that contains Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and a few other applications. Why not have a more privacy focussed version from Proton. I know libre office exists, I do respect and admire its services but it doesn't feel like a professional product which proton could offer. Especially, with Microsoft adding in AI which is potentially learning from our data it seems fitting at this time.

Maybe start with a "Proton Notes" app it is enough for now.
